Comment:

 '''src/bin/cfgmgr/b10-cfgmsg.py.in'''
 {{{
 PLUGIN_PATH = [] #FIXME Where should plugins come from? And how to find
 it?
 }}}
 I suggest $B10_FROM_BUILD/src/bin/cfgmgr/plugins

 '''src/lib/python/isc/config/cfgmgr.py'''[[BR]]
 Comment: rather than use an array of virtual modules and an array of real
 modules, and branching on which one contains the module being considered,
 can't we encapsulate a module in a class and use different derived classes
 for "real" and "virtual" modules?  It would aid future extensibility.

 Some documentation on how to create a plugin would be helpful - either on
 the wiki or as a README in the configuration manager directory.  The
 comments in "testplugin.py" are a bit sparse, and it is not the most
 obvious place for documentation.
